Cute Toy Poodle again

This is my second painting of Katie from a photograph her owner let me use.  She is such a cutie and she wears red very well. I am happy with this portrait of her, but I still have a couple of things I want to adjust.
She is a  very photogenic dog with her dark eyes and the beautiful color of her hair. I am happy that I had the opportunity to paint her. Thank you, Susan!

I was fortunate to be able to take a few pictures of this beautiful Toy Poodle one afternoon when I was painting on Monhegan.  Katie's owner had kindly taken some photos of the artists at work, which we were very pleased to have. 
Seeing this dog made me miss my own wonderful dog, Camden. She is a black standard Poodle and I've had her for eleven years. She used to come to Maine, but now that much of my time is spent painting when I am in Maine, she no longer travels with me when I make the long drive north. 
 I took a few photos of sweet and cooperative Katie. This is the first of several that I plan to paint. I may do this pose again in a larger format.

The Toy Poodle is remarkably intelligent, it is said to be one of the most trainable breeds. They are cooperative, perky, and lively; they like to be with people. These dogs are delightful, very amusing, and keen.

enjoying the scene I have chosen to paint!
